Jagged Germany: Chapter 379 All sunk seeking monthly ticket
"Find the target and shoot for warning!" After the U-113 submarine of the German Navy caught up with the British merchant ship, the captain followed the predetermined steps and began to prepare to force the British merchant ship to land.
According to the usual practice, once the shell explodes around the British merchant ship, the British sailors on board will be scared to death. At that time, they will only obey the orders of the German submarine. As long as you send a few soldiers up and control the core cabin of the merchant ship, you can drive the merchant ship to join the German Navy's breaking fleet. The British merchant ship was then sent back to Germany by the breaking fleet.
"Boom! Boom!" Two shells exploded beside the British merchant ship. The sound of the explosion startled all the British naval officers and soldiers on board.
"Damn, where did the shells come from?" Captain Schmidt asked loudly.
"Sir, the German submarine is two kilometers away from us!" A British navy soldier reported.
"German submarine? Haha, God forbid, they are finally here. Tell everyone, hold your breath. Without my order, absolutely do not fire!" Captain Schmidt ordered. He was afraid that other naval soldiers would fire early because of nervousness, thus scaring away the German submarine. Once danger is found, the submarine will inevitably dive urgently. With the performance of their merchant ships, it is impossible to find submarines hiding underwater. What's more, it will also make their plans leaked, and there will never be such an opportunity in the future.
"Sir, the Germans used semaphore to ask us to stop the ship immediately." A sailor reported to Captain Schmidt.
"Do as the Germans say! Others are ready. Once they hear my order, they immediately uncover the canvas and start shooting. This time, we must eliminate the German submarine." Captain Schmidt calmly ordered Follow the order. However, from his slightly trembling hands, it can be clearly seen that he is also very nervous in his heart.
The U-113 submarine of the German Navy did not find anything unusual about the British merchant ship at all. After confirming that the British merchant ship followed their orders and began to stop the ship, they immediately moved closer to it.
Watching the German submarine getting closer and closer to them, the British naval officers and soldiers on the merchant ship were all very nervous and dared not breathe.
Soon, the German submarine was less than 200 meters away from the British merchant ship.
"Attack immediately!" Captain Schmidt ordered immediately.
The British naval soldiers on the merchant ship immediately lifted off the canvas on the deck. A two-pounder and a one-pounder appeared. These rapid-fire guns are already ready to fire. The soldiers of the British Navy took aim and started shooting immediately.
The submarine of the German army also discovered the strangeness of the British. When they saw the rapid-fire guns, their expressions changed drastically.
"Damn it! This is a trap set by the British! Make an emergency dive, immediately make an emergency dive!" The captain of the U-113 submarine immediately issued an order.
Although, the submariners immediately filled the tank with water, and the submarine began to dive. But because of technical reasons, it takes at least two or three minutes for a submarine of this era to complete the dive. And the British obviously won't give them that long.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The rapid-fire guns on the British merchant ship have already started firing. Cannonballs roared and fired towards the German submarine two hundred meters away.
The shell exploded in the sea, splashing jets of water.
Although the two-pound rapid-fire gun and the one-pound rapid-fire gun are not very powerful, their rate of fire is very fast. What's more, the defense of submarines in this era is not strong. The steel plates used by submarines are also very thin steel plates, which simply cannot withstand the rapid-fire artillery shells of the British army.
"Hurry up! God bless you!" The captain of the U-133 submarine kept praying to God.
However, they still failed to escape their bad luck in the end. The shells of the British army hit the hull of the submarine, and easily blasted out holes of different sizes in the hull of the submarine. Sea water poured into the submarine from these holes. Although, the German navy sailors on the submarine desperately carried out damage control. However, it still failed. They can only watch their submarine sink into the cold Atlantic seabed. Of course, they failed to escape, and the submarine became their steel coffin.
"Good job, we sank the German submarine!" Seeing the German submarine sinking into the sea, a large amount of oil and some rags poured out of the sea. These are undoubtedly proofs that the German submarine was sunk.
"Long live! Long live!" The British naval officers and soldiers on the merchant ship all cheered. This is undoubtedly a remarkable victory for them. In the confrontation between the Royal Navy and the German Navy, they have failed too many times. And the possibility of them achieving results is too low.
Faced with this tactic of the British Navy, the German Navy's submarine force was not prepared at all. So much so that when these submarines happily wanted to capture British merchant ships, they discovered that these British merchant ships were not sheep at all, but wolves armed to the teeth.
Under this trap of the British, the submarine force of the German Navy lost more than a dozen submarines. Such intensive losses immediately attracted the attention of the German Navy. After all, even when they were fighting the British Navy most fiercely, they never lost so many submarines!
When the Minister of the Navy, Marshal Earl Tirpitz informed Qin Tian of this news, Qin Tian was also taken aback. He thought that the British had come up with some high-tech weapons under the strong pressure of Germany. ? For example, the advanced sonar that restrains the submarines of the German Navy. In that case, their subs would be useless.
The reason why submarines are powerful lies in the concealment of their attacks. Once discovered, it loses its concealment.
Fortunately, maybe the British are not so lucky! When the British armed merchant ship attacked a submarine of the German Navy, it was escaped by the German submarine. After out of danger, the German submarine reported to the country the news that the British used merchant ships to attack the German submarine. Qin Tian and the senior officials of the German Navy suddenly realized. It turned out that the British did not have any advanced weapons, but that they used intrigue. After learning about the British tactics, the problem will be much easier to solve.
"Your Excellency, the British merchant ships are very precious. However, the lives of our submarines and those officers and soldiers are even more precious. Let the submarine force stop capturing British merchant ships! Any ships that find the British will be sunk directly. !” Qin Tian issued the order.
Marshal Earl Tirpitz nodded, he also felt sorry for those elite submarine soldiers.
